am 20 weeks with dc2, and just had the most awful meltdown with DS who is 2.7 years old. Feeling like the most awful parent in the world. fortunately it happened at home and DH was there to take him out to give me some space. He was just really being a monkeyish 2 yr old which usually i ignore and can cope with, but it escalated into me yelling at him and giving him a smack on the bum (lightly), but then a harder one. Just feel like I can't cope at all but I can't go ask for help with the gp or midwife because then they would inform social services or something. Oh god, just can't do it, don't know why i'm even writing this, nothing I have done is excusable in any way.
